Chicago

For those who have done the MAPSS program, what does the diploma say? MA in Social Sciences, or MA in (insert your main field of study)? I am confused, since on the website they make it seem like it's such an interdisciplinary program (you can practically choose any classes you want to take) that you don't really get to study a field (e.g. history, political science) in depth, which leads me to think that the diploma will not indicate your field of interest. Is that correct?

Well, traditionally in past years, they release their decisions around March 1

Haha same! I'm a joint degree applicant myself, from the college. Looks like we should get our decisions next week?

anyone applying to Chicago CIR?

This is probably a long shot...But I was wondering if anyone here knows how easy/difficult it is to be accepted into the CIR program at UChicago, particularly for a Chicago undergrad trying to do the BA/MA joint degree. Personally, I haven't heard many people applying/attending the program, so any information or insight on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
